*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

The room or the awning?

 

The room. I cant find the awning right now. Im going to wait for a little while and then check again

 

I picked one up locally for like $20. I like the idea because it (1) keeps her close by in case she is made aware of other animals and (2) her tent is somewhat protected by the RTT platform.

 

Getting my feet wet in this....with a wife and two boys. Anybody have pics of the kids setup in the annex? I’m picturing two cots, one on each side of the ladder? Btw, my top two choices for tents are, 23zero Walkabout 62 and Tepui Autana 3, so far. Thanks

 

That sounds pretty awesome!

 

Anyone found a good solution to carry a kayak with a RTT? I have a 10.5ft, wonder if it’s safe to attach to the top or a different set up is out there.

 

60" cargo lock bars and sport track kayak J style holder. Cargo box and a 4 bike rack off the back hitch on occasion optional...lol

 

I run a Thule set up on the roof. If you have a half rack on the bed, it will most likely clear the tent. If necessary, mounting the kayak on its side (Thule J-rack style) should allow clearance due to the narrowing of the stern.
14.5 foot kayak.
Tepui ruggedized Autana.
All pro bed bars.

I've been contemplating the same. Thinking about repurposing a trailer to haul behind.

 

I had a folding kayak, and this is how I did it. I also could have put it in the back seat of my access cab. 10ft kayak

 

you could do it this way.
Desert Armor is about to release this tent.

 

Almost any hardshell with roof cross bars can do it* I think most have a 100lb rating.

 

Yep! Sounds about right
But normally you gotta buy them after the fact. Blah

Ours comes with them standard (shameless self plug lol)

 

Or you could buy a folding kayak. I had the Oru Kayak. It was nice and expensive for some plastic, but I found another company in South Carolina that makes them for $350 or $600 for a pair. I want one eventually

 

Looks identical to a Roof Nest.

 

Feel free to share that info!

I'm going to give these a serious consideration!
Thanks David!

 

Awesome. No problem. Let me know. They're on my list. The Oru kayak was nice. The one i had wasnt made for harsh water like the ocean (not that i want to go in the ocean with one), but for lakes and slow rivers, it was good. But Oru price tag for the cheapest one (now) is $900. Ouch! I had found mine on Facebook for $700, but that still was alot. I used it a couple times, and then sold it for $550. So not a horrible loss. I was digging around looking for a canoe or kayak, and found those. I think there is another company that has a canoe too
